This week's PhotoHunt theme is "High."
Most of the street shrines in Venice are at eye-level, but there are a few that are up high, second story or so. Not quite as easy to spot.
Below the jump, you can see the non-zoom versions where you can tell how high these shrines really are.
Thanks for visiting and have a happy weekend. You can find more Photo Hunters and join the hunt here.

I like that they have shrines all over. Even for the nonreligious, these are works of art.

Hi Annie, these are wonderful shrines and from looking at your wide shots, I'm afraid I may not have noticed them had it be me walking by. You are so good and finding these precious shrines on all levels. A great take for this week's theme.
Have a wonderful weekend.

Is there an exact total for the number of street shrines in Venice? Your photos make me think there are hundreds, if not thousands! :O
